Not really. Try looking in /usr/local/mysql/bin where on most *nixs the start-up
script resides (safe_mysqld).
To modify it there is a file called /etc/rc.local (or rc.local). See if this has been
altered. There is also the error log called hostname.err which will give you (and
anybody else trying to help) a more verbose message than the one you've posted.

Phil.
p.s. I'm getting a "Sorry. Your message could not be delivered to:
